I never thought about it before, but the train coming out of Everest the way that it does really does make the mountain look much less than its 29,000+ft. Disney really should have done better with this...

Would be interesting....would seem unlikely as I don't believe there's currently any video tech capable of playing back a 10k stream - but multiple videos can always be stitched and synced together so it's at least possible.
Worth noting that most humans can't even tell the difference between 2k and 4k on a standard movie screen when more than 10 feet away. So even 8k would largely be overkill. Frame rate and color reproduction/ contrast ratio are much more noticeable improvers of quality and realism. So here's hoping they went with Dolby's high dynamic range (forgetting the term - might actually still be Dolby-vision) tech or something similar. There's only a few theaters in the country that have it, but it makes a huge difference especially compared to just uping the resolution.

Really does look beautiful as they walk around the area. Truly looks other-worldly, but not biologically impossible/absurd...
Just a shame it is going to be full of guests

Wondering this as well. I would love to book for our June trip if they allow it prior to open.

As I've been saying, beyond the resolution, the projectors have to be BRIGHT and a very high frame rate will also help. 120FPS? Can current tech do that?
Been waiting for someone with inside knowledge to weigh in on the projection technology for a loooong time, though . . .

It is Mount Everest after all.I never thought about it before, but the train coming out of Everest the way that it does really does make the mountain look much less than its 29,000+ft. Disney really should have done better with this...

It looks EXACTLY like the real mountain and here's the pic to prove it.

Anyone want to bet how long before one of the attractions breaks down after opening? Lol

Every new attraction goes through growing pains as it goes from build to something that runs 365days a year. What's the point of harping on what we all know will happen, and all know will be worked through?

I read his criticism as a comment on the stupid GMA banner plastered across the view not the view.

I think people should be able to give honest critiques without others calling it bashing. Everything can always be made better. I think it might have some flaws to what is actually in the movie but is pretty darn close. Well done Imagineering!
Here's my one critique so far, adding some misters/foggers around the waterfalls might fuzz the waterfalls a bit and help create the illusion that they are further away by the details lost through the fog. Maybe the fog would just dissipate too quickly to work. I'm sure they thought of ways to try and make it as real as possible and maybe in the end it just wasn't all feasible.

pulling off the smoke/clouds would be a nice touch
